Silence: Making the Journey to Inner Quiet

by Barbara Erakko Taylor

The "Wall Street Journal" proclaims that "It's In to Look Inward", but the concept of silence has become so intimidating in our media-drenched culture that we often fear it. Barbara Erakko-Taylor opens the door to rediscovering the many gifts of silence and describes her journey of coming to trust silence as a faithful friend--a stunning word portrait for all spiritual seekers.

Customer Reviews

The truth is in its' silence!

This book is both peaceful and disturbing, for it opens both facets of one's self to be able to view and honor the depth of beauty that is within each of us. Ms Taylor uses words that leave you knowing that her struggles were deep and yet her search for inner joy equally compelling. Her building of the wall for her home brings one's knowledge of their own inner wisdom to the fore front- an accomplishment few of us have had an opportunity to experience. It is a poignant piece of autobiographical material that left me clear that silence is an unrated treasure! This is a book for any business person grappling with which task to do next......

A quietly refreshing read.

Ms. Taylor has shared more than her views on silence with readers; she has shared her LIFE. She is a courageous woman with wit and talent and sensitivity, and I can't wait to read her next work.
